Über uns

Catena-X ist das erste offene und interoperable Datenökosystem. Unser Verein ist ein Zusammenschluss von Mitgliedern und Nutzern. Gemeinsam realisieren wir Projekte im Rahmen eines Konsortiums. Wir sind eine Open-Source-Community und eine Betreibergesellschaft.

Und wir alle haben dasselbe Ziel: Transparenz zu schaffen und eine Umgebung für die Erstellung, den Betrieb und die gemeinsame Nutzung von Datenketten entlang der automobilen Wertschöpfungskette bereitzustellen.

Radikale Zusammenarbeit in der Praxis

Ein herzliches Dankeschön geht an unsere besonders engagierten ehrenamtlichen Vorstandsmitglieder.
